1928: The Rise of Giants

Chapter 23 Beating Yu Likui

"Remember?" Lin Ruxian hugged his shoulders, twisting her plump and voluptuous waist slightly, like a beautiful beautiful snake, "Eight years ago you were only as tall as my chest, but now you are so big. ”

When 14-year-old Ye Luo helped Jing Ruishan make plans to design the New World Playground, it happened to be the year that 20-year-old Lin Ruxian married Jing Ruishan.

At that time, Ye Luo ran to Jing Ruishan every now and then to discuss business. Jing Ruishan put the meeting place between the two at Lin Ruxian's boudoir in Hudong.

He was young, well-spoken and well-behaved. As soon as he came back and forth, Lin Ruxian recognized him as his younger brother, and the two had a very good relationship.

From Lin Ruxian, his god-sister, Ye Luo experienced the pampering of a sister that he had never experienced before. Unfortunately, two years later, he left for England and the United States to study abroad. After that, the two of them only exchanged letters more than a dozen times in the past six years.

"Sister-in-law, you are still as beautiful as before." Ye Luo supported her and gently swayed to the edge of the dance floor, "I heard that my sister-in-law is in charge of the New World Amusement Park now?"

"What? Are you worried that you won't be able to get the dividends you saved with Big Brother?" Lin Ruxian raised her eyes and glanced at him, the corners of her mouth turned up, "Don't worry, I'll deposit them all in HSBC Bank for you."

"You, when you have free time, you often come to New World to play. People say that your second young master is my little boss in New World. Hey, how can the boss not come to the store for seven or eight years to check it out?"

"Okay, sister-in-law, I will definitely come over and play when I have time." Ye Luo originally wanted to ask about the conflict between New World Amusement Park and Yongxing Company, but Lin Ruxian obviously didn't want to talk about it here, so the topic returned to his experience studying abroad.

The two danced three pieces of music, and Lin Ruxian reluctantly let him go. As soon as he sat down, dripping with sweat, seven or eight men came around to propose a toast and invite him to dance.

After Jing Ruishan's death, Lin Ruxian, a pretty widow, has been coveted by various men. Fortunately, she is fierce and vicious. After a few of them were severely repaired, the number of people harassing her has gradually decreased recently.

When the masquerade was coming to an end, Lin Ruxian moved lightly, holding a wine glass and drank several drinks with Ye Luo. At this time, she had taken off the mask on her face, and her breathtakingly beautiful face instantly attracted the audience. sight.

"Brother Ye Luo, let my sister take a look at you." Her cheeks were slightly red, her voice was a bit drunk, and she reached out to pull off the mask on Ye Luo's face.

Ye Luo smiled and did not resist, letting her take off her mask.

At that moment, Lin Ruxian's moist eyes lit up, then she took his mask, leaned close to his ear and whispered: "In more than two months, it will be your eldest brother's death anniversary, come home and give him a blessing." Make some incense."

"Sister-in-law." Ye Luo looked down at her.

Lin Ruxian glanced around, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and she put her finger to his lips: "If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it later. I'll leave first."

Ye Luo watched her leave.

While dancing and drinking, he could already feel the heavy pressure on Lin Ruxian's shoulders.

She followed the Citibank Masquerade to find her, and mentioned her eldest brother Jing Ruishan and the New World Amusement Park intentionally or unintentionally. It seemed that Yongxing Company had given her so much pressure that she could no longer bear it.

After all, the New World Playground is located in the French Concession, which is the territory of the three tycoons. As a woman, she can use ruthless means to force back ordinary forces, and can make the wife of the bride and the Jing family let go of the New World, but it is difficult for her to withstand the pressure from Yongxing. Corporate pressure.

After the dance, the men and women hugged each other, some went to hotel rooms, and some called for a taxi.

At this time, the car rental business was not yet common, and it was impossible to just stop a car on the road. You had to call the car rental agency to make an appointment, and then a dedicated driver would come to pick you up.

Therefore, whether the car rental business is good or not is closely related to your company's phone number.

Nowadays, Yunfei Automobile Company, the most powerful American company, has taken advantage of this. Yunfei's reservation phone number is 30189, which is homophonic to "a glass of wine at the end of the year" in Shanghai dialect. It is simple and easy to remember.

Ye Luo has already bought Xiangsheng Automobile Dealers, and together with other Chinese auto dealers acquired piecemeal, he will soon be able to list Ye's Automobile Dealers and officially start business.

As for the reservation phone number for his own car dealership, Ye Luo had already made an idea. He would have a good training with Zhou Xiangsheng in a few days and finalize everything about the car dealership. Then most of the business would be settled.

Ye Luo drove back to Ye Mansion.

A few days after returning to Shanghai, he hardly rested at home, and Li Shuzhen began to complain that she had raised such a son in vain.

Ye Luo thought about chatting with her grandma tonight. As soon as she entered the door, she saw the maid Xiaoli looking eagerly. After seeing him come back, her face was as happy as honey.

"Second Young Master, you're back!" Xiaoli jumped over to catch his suit jacket and followed him through the door with a smile.

"Is grandma at home?" Ye Luo greeted the servants who were still busy at work.

Xiaoli's head shook like a rattle: "My wife went to play mahjong with General Lu's concubines today. I guess she won't come back in the evening."

Well, I say that I have no home every day, but my grandma is much crazier than me when it comes to playing mahjong.

Ye Luo couldn't complain, so he came to the living room and saw that the mahjong game at home had just ended, and the fourth concubine Bi Yunxia was bending down to help the servants clean up the mess.

"Mom, have you won any money?" Ye Luo sat down.

When Bi Yunxia heard his voice, she stood up and turned around happily, smoothing her wrinkled cheongsam with her hands. After hearing these words, her smile suddenly froze.

"I-I'm going to make some supper for the second young master." Bi Yunxia ran away with a red face, her heavy chest shaking violently. "Mom, I don't like sweets, just some wontons or something."

Ye Luo took a curious look at the drawer of the mahjong table. Good guy, not a penny is left!
This is another huge tuition payment.

"Second Young Master, the weather is a bit cold at night. Remember to prepare a coat when you go out in the future." Xiaoli, who was carrying tea, came over and started to babble, "I have asked someone to go to the tailor shop to customize the clothes for spring. Well, the materials in suit shops are not good lately, why don’t we make new suits later?”

"Everything is fine." Ye Luo didn't care about this. He took a sip of tea and his stomach began to growl.

"The second young master is good at everything, but he is too casual in this aspect!" Xiaoli muttered in a low voice, and then she bent down, and Ye Luo's round face was pulled into a big cake by moving left and right with his hands, "Er Shuo Master, what are you doing?"

"No matter how big or small, if you don't change your character, you won't be able to get married in the future." Ye Luo scolded her with a smile.

Xiaoli is about the same age as Qingqing, but she was sold to the Ye family by her family when she was six years old. She used to take care of the daily life of Ye Yuqiao and his wife, but now she is assigned to Ye Luo by Ye Yuqiao, and she is particularly outstanding in her work ability.

Because we have been playing with brothers Ye Hao and Ye Luo since we were young, we are very close to each other.

"I won't get married! I want to serve the second young master for the rest of my life!" Xiaoli stuck out her tongue.

While the two were chatting, Bi Yunxia came over with a bowl of steaming wontons.

"It smells so good! What are you eating? Am I enjoying your meal?" Ye Yuqiao, who had returned from drinking and socializing, pushed the door open and Xiaoli quickly ran over to help him get his clothes.

"Master, I'll cook a bowl for you right away." Bi Yunxia had just sat down next to Ye Luo, but before she was warm, she stood up and ran towards the kitchen.

"Well, I don't want green onions." Ye Yuqiao nodded slightly and came to sit next to Ye Luo. Watching him snoring and eating wontons, his face suddenly fell. "The second young master is so majestic. 144 million yuan bought 2000 cars from a bankrupt company." Car?"

Xiaoli was just making tea when she heard Ye Yuqiao's words. Her hands shook and she realized that something was wrong. She quickly sneaked into the kitchen and planned to call Biyunxia to break up the fight.

"Abba, you said it yourself that you agree to my business." Ye Luo didn't look at him and continued to eat wontons and soup. "There's no word out there that my money comes from the Labor Federation, right?"

"Haha. How dare you? 144 million oceans, a zero less, they might think I would do this. But now, with such a huge amount, you can buy a bunch of scrap metal, even if you say it, you won't even believe it."

Ye Yuqiao looked at him sideways.

At this time, even if Ye Yuqiao said that the money was paid by the labor union, no one would believe it!
After all, it’s too outrageous, too contrary to common sense, and too unbelievable!

"That's good. You don't have to worry about the money anyway. Citibank is willing to lend it to me. It's all agreed upon." Ye Luo finished the last sip of soup.

"I know. You borrowed 120 million yuan, the monthly interest rate is 6%, and you have to pay 7200 yuan a month in interest." Ye Yuqiao is now in an extremely conflicted mood. On the one hand, he has watched Ye Luo since he was a child and knows that he has extraordinary abilities. Thinking of this huge sum of money, he couldn't believe that Ye Luo's business could cover these costs.

"I know." Ye Luo wiped his mouth with an unconcerned expression, "It's just right for Fengming Tower to use the monthly profits to pay the interest."

The largest brothel in western Shanghai, one month's profit is only enough to pay bank loan interest.

This shows how huge the amount of money is.

Ye Yuqiao looked at him and hesitated several times. When he finally made up his mind to persuade him, Bi Yunxia came with a bowl of wontons.

"Master~ The second young master is so capable, you have to believe him." Bi Yunxia said softly, sitting next to Ye Yuqiao, and gently lifted his legs with her pink fist.

When she heard Xiaoli say that the father and son might have a big fight, she hurriedly came to help Ye Luo speak, but it seemed that the conversation was going well.

"Forget it, forget it, he has his own considerations, I don't care." Ye Yuqiao blew the hot air, but still chose to believe Ye Luo. He patted Biyunxia and said, "Xiaoxia, you go back to the room to rest, Lao Er and I are still I have something to say."

"Yes, Master." Bi Yunxia stood up and nodded to Ye Luo, "Second Young Master, please rest early."

"Goodbye, little mom." Ye Luo hummed and turned to look at Ye Yuqiao.

Xiaoli understood the look and called all the servants out of the living room.

After only the father and son were left, Ye Yuqiao said: "I sent people to investigate the matter of the Labor Federation. There are problems with the books! Alas, we have been brothers for decades, I really don't want to do anything."

"Abba, the wildfire will not burn out, but the spring breeze will blow again." Ye Luo leaned on the sofa, his eyes gradually becoming colder, "Uncles and uncles have been relying on our Ye family for many years. What should be touched and what should not be touched should be kept in mind. It’s clear. Is Yu Likui’s biggest problem?”

"Yeah. What do you think?" Ye Yuqiao held the bowl with a serious look on his face, "He is responsible for looking after several of our places. It's very difficult to move them."

"First, send someone to check the accounts of his rickshaw company. Pay all the unpaid dues over the years, or else go to the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau to apply for arbitration. Second, ask Wang Hu, Director of the Songhu Police Department, to mobilize manpower to rectify the problem. A standard rickshaw driver.”

Ye Luo's eyes showed a fierce look,

"Third, thoroughly investigate all the union veterans who have anything to do with Yu Likui. Abba, no one of these people can be left alive!"
